(I saw someone else published an article about vkernel before I did so I
didn't pursue it more -- but I did just publish the Matt's answers to
about vkernel to my BSD news website.)
I'd like to make a list of DragonFly's inventions or new tools. The
following are some new tools (compare with FreeBSD 4 -- there were other
changes but I think I list here only DragonFly tools.) I can also post
this on the DragonFly wiki. Can you add to or correct this first?
acxcontrol -- Texas Instruments ACX100/TNETW1130(ACX111) network adapters tool
battd -- Battery status monitoring daemon
dntpd -- Network time protocol client daemon
jscan - utility for scanning journaling files
mount_udf (is this worth mentioning?)
mountctl -- control journaling and other features on mounted file systems
pctrack -- dumps program counter tracking data recorded by the kernel
rconfig -- Remote Configuration Client/Server
resident -- make a dynamic binary memory-resident
varsym -- variant symlinks. Can someone point me to examples or add
examples to varsym.1 or document /etc/varsym.conf? Is there any manpage
for varsym_set, varsym_get, varsym_list?
I want to build a list, because often users don't know what is available.
